Speaking to Sudans Post this afternoon, Gattiek Gatkuoth Wichar, the spokesman of South Sudan\u2019s Water Resources and Irrigation minister, said the country however intents to build its own dam in the near future.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat I know is that South Sudan will build her own dam, but that would be in the future,\u201d he told Sudans Post from South Sudan\u2019s capital Juba.<\/p>\n

Regarding the question as to if South Sudan will import electricity from Ethiopia, this is something that may happen in the future and at this point in time, I have no answer for it,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

South Sudan has strong relations with Ethiopia, but has not come out to publicly support the construction of the dam which Egypt and Sudan claim may affect their water shares.<\/p>\n
